#MenToo
In 2018, the #MeToo campaign took the world by storm, drawing attention to womens stories of sexual abuse and misconduct. #MenToo tells the other side of the story. Collected in one volume are Bettina Arndts articles on mens issues, rights and representation covering twenty years, with footnotes to provide updates on critical issues. Bettina proposes that #MeToo is simply the latest salvo in a long crusade by feminists to crush male sexuality. Bettina argues that most women are appalled by the #MeToo attacks where unproven allegations are being used to destroy mens careers. They are fed up with trivial issues being blown up as sexism. Here in Australia, as elsewhere, people are turning away from mainstream media seeking more balanced views elsewhere. That includes properly addressing whats happening to men. This collection of writing is meant as a celebration of all the good men who do so much to contribute to our society. Covering topics including #MeToo and the male chastity crusade, the scary grip of feminism, universities being unsafe for male students, the politics of desire, work and family life, fatherhood, the tricky world of modern dating and much more.
The Woman's Page
In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, journalism, politics, and social advocacy were largely male preserves. Six women, however, did manage to come to prominence through their writing and public performance: Agnes Maule Machar, Sara Jeannette Duncan, E. Pauline Johnson, Kathleen Blake Coleman, Flora MacDonald Denison, and Nellie L. McClung. The Woman's Page is a detailed study of these six women and their respective works. Focusing on the diverse sources of their rhetorical power, Janice Fiamengo assesses how popular poetry, journalism, essays, and public speeches enabled these women to play major roles in the central debates of their day. A few of their names, particularly those of McClung and Johnson, are still well known today, although studies of their writings and speeches are limited. Others are almost entirely unknown, an unfortunate fact given the wit, intelligence, and passion of their writing and self-presentation. Seeking to return their words to public attention, The Woman's Page demonstrates how these women influenced readers and listeners regarding their society's most controversial issues.
Alice Munro’s Miraculous Art
Alice Munro’s Miraculous Art is a collection of sixteen original essays on Nobel laureate Alice Munro’s writings. The volume covers the entirety of Munro’s career, from the first stories she published in the early 1950s as an undergraduate at the University of Western Ontario to her final books. It offers an enlightening range of approaches and interpretive strategies, and provides many new perspectives, reconsidered positions and analyses that will enhance the reading, teaching, and appreciation of Munro’s remarkable—indeed miraculous—work. Following the editors’ introduction—which surveys Munro’s recurrent themes, explains the design of the book, and summarizes each contribution—Munro biographer Robert Thacker contributes a substantial bio-critical introduction to her career. The book is then divided into three sections, focusing on Munro’s characteristic forms, themes, and most notable literary effects.
Heterophobia
Once confident in the potential of feminism to create a more equitable and just society, Daphne Patai persuasively demonstrates in Heterophobia how the efforts of some feminists - members of what she calls the "sexual harassment industry" - have created an environment that stifles healthy and natural interactions between the sexes. The tremendous growth of sexual harassment legislation represents feminism's greatest contemporary success, but this victory has dubious consequences - a world where kindergarten boys face legal action for kissing female classmates and men are sued by coworkers for offenses such as unwanted hugs, uninvited compliments, or glances that last too long.
The Feminist Lie
Feminist ideology has seeped into every aspect of our society. This book is a sobering true story of tragedy, suicide, and murder directly caused by feminism. It not only chronicles true stories that show feminism's discrimination against men, it's backed by peer-reviewed research. Additionally, it includes investigative journalism that proves feminism was never about equality. The reality is that feminism doesn't just victimize men. It also victimizes women, children, families, and communities.
Other Selves
The most recent installment of the Reappraisals series, which examines the range of meanings associated with animals in the Canadian literary imagination.
The Fraud of Feminism
"The Fraud of Feminism" by Ernest Belfort Bax offers a critical examination of feminism, gender dynamics, and societal structures. Bax delves into the complex intersections of feminism, politics, and social justice, providing a thought-provoking critique of contemporary gender ideologies. Through meticulous analysis of history and politics, he unveils the perceived inequalities and challenges the prevailing notions of patriarchy and male dominance. Bax's advocacy for gender equality and women's rights is evident throughout the book, yet he also addresses the phenomenon of misandry and its implications for society. By dissecting gender roles and advocating for a more nuanced understanding of ...
Roar Like a Woman
Are you a feminist? Or are you a masculinist? It's a trick question-they're the same thing, says mother of two and parenting magazine journalist, Natalie Ritchie. Five decades after feminism began, women are trapped in a masculinist dead end. Feminists claim to be women's friend, but their actions shout the opposite. Feminism cheerleads a woman's man-identical career, but sneers at her work as mother and housewife. It pushes women into nine-to-five jobs designed for a man with a 24/7 wife at home, but fails to shape jobs around the domestic workload of the working woman who is also that 24/7 wife. It exhorts women to ape men's working style, and shuns development of a truly womanly working s...
Animal Rights
Cass Sunstein and Martha Nussbaum bring together an all-star cast of contributors to explore the legal and political issues that underlie the campaign for animal rights and the opposition to it. Addressing ethical questions about ownership, protection against unjustified suffering, and the ability of animals to make their own choices free from human control, the authors offer numerous different perspectives on animal rights and animal welfare. They show that whatever one's ultimate conclusions, the relationship between human beings and nonhuman animals is being fundamentally rethought. This book offers a state-of-the-art treatment of that rethinking.
Beyond Bylines
Beyond Bylines: Media Workers and Women’s Rights in Canada explores the ways in which several of Canada’s women journalists, broadcasters, and other media workers reached well beyond the glory of their personal bylines to advocate for the most controversial women’s rights of their eras. To do so, some of them adopted conventional feminine identities, while others refused to conform altogether, openly and defiantly challenging the gender expectations of their day. The book consists of a series of case studies of the women in question as they grappled with the concerns close to their hearts: higher education for women, healthy dress reforms, the vote, equal opportunities at work, abortio...
